## Transcript

Do you understand about pleading guilty? You are giving up the right to a trial by jury. Yes. Do you understand that by pleading guilty or given up the right to remain silent and not to incriminate yourself. Do you understand that by pleading guilty, or given up the right to confront witnesses? That the state may bring to testify against you, how do you plead to the six counts of conspiracy to commit, intentional interference with the forms of election, duties, guilty. And I just have a few questions for you. Do you understand the nature of the charges that have been reach you? Since you would be pleading guilty to today?

Do you still wish to waive those rights? And are you pleading guilty today? Because you agree that there is a sufficient factual basis that there are no facts that support the plea of guilty? Mister Rafferty, are you satisfied? Your client is competent, understanding with the police voluntary and that there is a sufficient factual basis for entering this plea. I agree and find that there is a sufficient factual basis and I find this plea of guilty to be knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently enter.
